Speaking with Buzzfeed over the weekend at Comic-Con, the actor opened up about making his own return to the show and getting Tyler to come on board as well.

“They’ve all been my best friends for a long time and Jeff [Davis] asked me to come back, but I couldn’t because I have a different contract for something else,” Colton shared, revealing that at first he had a conflict.

“So then I said, ‘I can get them to agree, but I’ll only come back if Dylan [O'Brien] and [Tyler] Hoechlin come back, because I wanted the original family to be together.”

While Dylan was already coming back because of really heartfelt reasons, Colton had to do a little arm twisting with Tyler.

“I sent them a sad, ridiculous … text that was like ‘We’re all a family, you can’t let the show go on without us!’” Colton shared. “And Hoechlin, of course, was like total grumpy cat. So then I called his agent, because we have the same agent, and I made him do it.”
